Connect - Release 9.33

Release Date: June 2025

We have been enhancing Connect since the last release, adding new features and addressing known issues. This overview outlines the updates available.

Some features may require additional setup by Totalmobile. If needed, reach out to your Account Manager for access details.

These Release Notes cover the following:

What’s New

  • Document Vault Repository
    A new Document Vault repository has been added to Connect. This feature allows documents and photos to be linked to various objects, such as Orders, Visits, and Surveys.

  • Multi Upload to Document Vault
    A multi upload feature has been added to the new Document Vault tab in the Order Management, Planning Board, Customer Dashboard, and Subcontractor Portal, which allows users to upload multiple documents and photos.

  • Last Mile Updates
    The Last Mile feature is a single page which enhances tenant visibility during the operative on-route status. It provides an estimated arrival time based on the operative's location and displays the operative details. This is new URL which can be added into the On Route SMS message.

  • Subcontracting from Gantt View
    A new Subcontracting button has been added to the Gantt View. This allow planners to subcontract work directly from a plan, giving the user the option to create multiple subcontract orders at a time.

  • Subcontract Update Category Document Upload
    There is a new option in the Subcontract Update Categories which allows a document upload within the update, this streamlines the process by enforcing the document upload as part of the update.

  • Enhancements to the Planned Works Job Planner and Gantt View

    • The Job Planner Work Categories now changes colour based on the amount of work allocated.

    • Order and Job dates can be updated from the Gantt chart by uploading a .csv file (in the same format as the export file).

  • Mobilise Property/Site/Customer Documentation Integration API
    The Mobilise integration API has been updated to retrieve work information for a property (site/customer). This feature enhances the ability to access and manage property-related work data efficiently.

  • Customer Order Summary API
    The Customer Order Summary API has been implemented, providing a new interface for accessing order information. This API enhancement allows for more efficient retrieval and management of customer order data.

  • ALM (Asset Lifecycle Management) Property Data APIs
    New Property Data APIs have been implemented for the ALM integration. These APIs provide up-to-date information on HHSRS, Asbestos, and Decency for given Customer records. The feature also includes a notification system to alert ALM when new data is available for retrieval, enhancing data synchronisation between systems.

Known Issues

Description

CTD-399

Single message will no longer get stuck at pending, but if a single subscription has multiple actions, and the first action succeeds, then any actions after that fail, they will not deadletter and cannot be re-sent. The suggested solution for this is to not have multiple actions on one subscription unless it is absolutely necessary.
